Tina Alexander
International Business Consultant
Wellington, NZ
I graduated from VUW with a BCA in Public Policy and a BA in Politics
and Japanese Language.
The most enjoyable part of my four years of study was doing my Japanese
language papers.
With the Japanese I have learnt I have been able to travel and work
in Japan on two occasions ... I have also been able to work in some
very interesting jobs in New Zealand because of my Japanese language
skills. |
